IceCast and Shoutcast look like they'll both work just fine for the server, no problems there. However, as for the source client, that's another story. This machine was built as a mini-server, I use it for IRC/DNS/WWW and so forth, therefore, has no X server and no soundcard (for the record it has a soundcard built onto the motherboard AC97, but FreeBSD 4.10 sees it as chip0, so I don't think it's useable), and all of the source clients I have found either require a soundcard or the X system to be installed. Is there any help for me? I remember the days of Windows streaming with Shoutcast, in that case, Winamp connected with a socket to shoutcast and completely bypassed the soundcard... Anything like that for FreeBSD? Thanks All -- Justin W.
